[Event "K+R+4P+K+R+4P"] [Site "www.masterchessopen.com"] [Date "1932.01.01"] [Round "0"] [White "Sultan Khan"] [Black "Flohr"] [Result "1-0"] [EventType "game"] [FEN "3k4/p6R/p3p3/4P1p1/3PK1P1/r7/7P/8 w - - 0 1"] { Black is clearly worse; his pawn structure consists of weak doubled and isolated pawns. Furthermore, if White captures either Black's g- or e-pawn, he will have a dangerous passed pawn. His active pieces also contribute to his advantage. } 1.Rg7 Rh3 2.Rxg5 Rxh2 3.Rg8+ Kc7 { Clever defense. Against 4. Rg7+, Black has 4...Kb6, winning a tempo to advance the passed a-pawn. Naturally, Black should still lose the game, but at least he would have some practical chance. } 4.Rg6! (4.Rg7+ Kb6) 4...a5 { Against 4...Kd7 a typical penetration follows: 5.Rg7+ Kc6 6.Re7 Rh6, and now the familiar fork 7.Rxe6! Rxe6 8.d5+ wins. } (4...Kd7 5.Rg7+ Kc6 6.Re7 Rh6 7.Rxe6+! Rxe6 8.d5+ $18) 5.Rxe6 Kb7 6.Rf6 Rg2 7.e6! { The two connected passed pawns are a major force, especially when they get close to the last rank. } Rxg4+ 8.Kd5 Kc7 9.Rf7+ Kd8 10.Rxa7 Rh4 11.Kc5 {#r} 1-0
